I'm so glad you enjoyed the park! I'm constantly telling the local gp that bitch on FB about it being the "WoRsT pArK eVer" that they are completely off base. Lol, there are far worst parks. If you loved the Boss as it is now you would have adored it when it still had the helix in place. Completely neutered it by taking that out as far as I'm concerned; but, yes you do need a mountain sherpa to guide you to the ride station 🙄 -
^ while I don't blame you at all for skipping Boomerang? I always ride it when there, just for the history. that's the old "Flashback" from Six Flags Over Texas (removed to make way for more Gotham (along with the bumpercars) way back in 2012 (and for a bit there, right next to it was the old "Dungeon Drop" from Astroworld (it had been rethemed as Superman, but now gone anyways) -

I think for me that the food can be bad for me but it should taste good. Knott's burger places all serve the same burgers and fries that are on the meal plan but only Grizzly Creek lets you pick and load up on the produce toppings and has jalapenos and peppercini so its a nice touch. The new Casa California is better than the old Victoria Mexican restaurant. The Prop Shop Pizza has cheese and pepper packets sitting out and are only missing an oregeno shaker. Boardwalk BBQ has a whole half chicken or tri tip and three types of BBQ sauces. I have seen a lot of food improvement over the past five years or so. Several boards and Youtube channels cover Disney food but not much mention of Cedar Far, or Knott's in general. Since legacy Cedar Fair positions of CEO, CFO, and COO are running the company now, I hope Six Flags restaurant problems will be slowly fixed. I can barely finish a meal at SFMM but it is not on meal size and solely based on taste/flavor These were my beverage choices for the walk to the park from the liquor store near the Metrolink train station. Mojito in a can! -
I went to SFStL for the first time this past weekend. Um, quick question, but why so so many people whine about this park? It's GREAT! I had a blast all day long! The Boss - Holy crapola, maybe it's because I had bottom-of-the-barrel expectations from hearing nonstop bitching about how rough this ride has become, but goddamn this is one of the most balls-out coasters I've ever been on. This thing just RRRRRRRRRIPS through the course and tells the passengers to hold the hell on. I truly, 100%, unironically, LOVE this ride. Love love love. Give me more. The morning rides were exceptionally fun because they still had the sprinklers going during the post-MCBR turnaround. I was hooting, hollering, and laughing the entire ride every time. My only complaint is the queue being nothing but uphill ramps for five miles. Other than that, no notes. 10 laps. Mr Freeze - D-D-D-DAYUM!!!!! I've never been on a Freeze before (the one in Texas was dead when we visited) and holy hell what a fun ride! Surprise airtime kicks all throughout the course, the spike is wacky, the launch is punchy, and the track switch in the station is a hoot! 7 laps. American Thunder - Not great, not terrible, extremely mediocre but still cute and fun enough. 1 lap. Screamin Eagle - Classic woodie that's gotten a little worse for the wear over the years but I still had a blast flying through the woods! 3 laps. Would have been more but it's in the worst area of the park to walk back to over and over and I just wasn't feeling it. Ninja - Ow. 1 lap. Batman - Mirror clone! Still a fantastic invert, even if it has been cloned all over the world a thousand times. It's always worth the ride. 1 lap. Boomerang - Pass. Pandemonium - Zippy little spinner, fun enough but nothing amazing. We hardly spun for the first half but realllllllly got moving for the second half. We hit the brakes and kept spinning like a teacup for a while until we moved far enough ahead to catch the reset bar. 1 lap. River King Mine Train - I love me a good, classic mine train. While this one isn't big or fast it has heart. I loved the terrain style layout. 2 laps. Rookie Racer - Cute little ride for the young'ns but nothing noteworthy for adults. I really got tired of listening to the revving engine sound effect that plays near nonstop while waiting for Joker. 1 lap. Joker - Fun, but without the funhouse queue operating. The views from this ride, though, holy cow. Supergirl - I've been on a bunch of Enterprise-style flats, this is my first time in the open-air style seats. Fun, though hardly a thrill, and over-engineered compared to a classic Enterprise. Justice League - It broke as soon as we left the loading area. Sat there for about 10 minutes, then rode half of the ride with the lights on. No offer to re-ride with show lighting, no desire to try again. SkyScreamer - I love Sky Flyers. This is yet another one. Catwoman's Whip - Closed most of the day, when I saw it operating it already had a 45-minute wait and I really didn't care enough to wait. Seriously, people, this park is a lot of fun. It certainly isn't the greatest but it is FAR from the worst. -

Thanks for sharing the food options, especially when it comes to the healthier options. I hear you on needing more, sometimes. When we eat clean on vacations and keep working out every morning, we actually find ourselves losing weight despite having a few drinks during the evening. We always eat really clean throughout day and cheat a little at dinner. I can't eat like crap during the day anymore, anyway. But... When we go to Kings Island Haunt this Saturday, it's going to be a free for all. It's like our one day a year where we intentionally drink a lot and don't care what we eat starting from late afternoon until we tap out at night. A workout before the park and the next morning before we drive home are crucial to make us not feel like total garbage. Cardio, cold shower, coffee, eggs, and a small bowl of fruit in that order. That puts me right back to about 75-80% after our annual Haunt binge nights. -

Visited Knott's on October 9th, Wednesday during the week. No school groups today and the park was fairly dead. The longest waits were Ghostrider or Log Ride at 15 min or front row of Xcelerator at 20 people. A couple of employees confirmed that Mystery Lodge has been gutted and will not return. Ghostrider is jackhammering around the turn from the station to the lift and the midcourse turnaround, so I would not be surprised if the do some retracking on the next closure. The rest of the ride runs pretty well. No additional work on Monte and all track except for one piece of old track is missing. No work on track supports yet. I hope they keep this little loop that you launch through just outside of the station. Rear spike Boardwalk BBQ didn't open until 11:30 am, and I already had a couple of cocktails so I had Panda's orange chicken with noodles. I already ate some chicken and the red stuff is hot sauce. Oh well, I walked it off with 26,745 steps. Prop Shop Piizza is located between the Charles Shultz Theater and bumper cars at the rear of the park. The salads, pizza and pasta are on the meal plan. Here are a couple of the salads and sorry about the condensation. Other options - the side salad is sping mix or caesar with choice of dressing. The Grizzly Creek Lodge in Camp Snoopy lets you pick your burger toppings and all of these items are on the meal plan but not ultra healthy because burger and chicken tenders comes with fries. I would probably skip the fries and bun and turn the burger into a salad from this bar. Chicken tender and caesar salads Pizza Casa California tries to be a Chipotle and is pretty good. Only the Nachos and Carne Asada is not on the meal plan but I get the chicken bowl anyway. Hopefully, these restaurants make it to Six Flags. -

We did a whirlwind trip last Saturday (literally flew into Philly Fri night, showed up at hotel near Hershey at 2:30 am and had just Sat at the park) It was absolutely PACKED. In anticipation of this I had just bucked it up and bought the unlimited fast lanes for both rides and haunts online ahead of time. Still took us a good half hour to redeem our wristbands when we got to the park. To minimize wasted time since the park didn't open until noon, we stopped and grabbed lunch at Subway and did our Chocolate world shopping before park open. There still would have been no way to get on everything and do all the haunts, even with the fastpasses and 10-11 hours. It did allow us to do all the rides we wanted to and get all 5 haunts in with about 45-60 min for grabbing some dinner, most of that was standing in line. Wildcat's revenge being the only coaster we didn't have, we did focus on that, got 3 rides including 1 night ride on it. Definitely a top 5 RMC. Loved it. The new restraints on Skyrush are a huge improvement. We both thought it made the coaster much more fun now and you still get the oddly satisfying "pop" on the break run. One funny note on Skyrush; we were lined up for front row after the line closed at 10 (haunts were open until 11) wondering if they would honor that when to no one's suprise they announced last train, get on or get out. This resulted in about 10 seconds of a complete keystone cops free for all with everyone scrambling to get on. We ended up in the last row in both outside seats. Definitely more intense but not uncomfortably so. As far as Dark Nights; atmosphere/decorations were very good, scare zones ok but nothing special, unfortunately we really didn't have time for the shows, haunts were mostly very very good. They were well stocked with scare actors and nice and long. I thought Descent and Haunted Coal Mine had the best scares and Estate of Evil probably the best set pieces. Part of the problem with the scare zones is that it was just so crowded that the scare actors couldn't move around quite as freely as what would make better scares. -

Super quick trip report for a super quick trip. After spending Saturday at Hershey and with an 8:30 pm flight out of Philly Sunday evening we drove an hour and a half out of the way to spend about 3 and a half hours at Knoebels. Yes, we have been there before so were prepared to just hit our favorites and do an abbreviated trip. Park was open 12-5, we were there about 12:15-3:45. Parking lot was packed, but we were able to get fairly close by virtue of needing to use the EV chargers (in PA they charge by the hour fyi) We walked past the one price, one pass giant ticket booth and the line looked to easily be 45-60 min. Time we didn't have and we didn't feel was necessary. Walked up to a regular ticket booth with no line, bought $40 worth of tickets and that worked out just about perfect. Weirdly, for as packed as the parking lot was and for as long as the one pass line was.........ride lines were not as horrible as I thought they would be, not short but not ridiculous. Although even if you were able to stay all 5 hours of opening you probably would not have gotten on everything you wanted to. Longest we waited was Phoenix but it was running only one train. In the end we got on Impulse, Phoenix, Flying Turns 2x, Haunted Manison, and Flyers. Sure it was hard to not get to stay and do more but it was expected going in and it was nice to see Flying Turns running without issues. FYI - the main ride operator on Flyers was being pretty strict about snapping. That's info from my son, frankly I could care less, 😉
